There is a hex shaped piece that sticks out below the clutch. Hold the inner part with a wrench and loosen the outer part. Oil should run out from a hole on the bottom of the piece. If not, the hole could be plugged or the oil is low. Check this with the tractor on level ground.

I'm not exactly sure on an A, but on the B's I've worked on, it's a hex shaped piece that sticks out below the clutch. It could also be below the flywheel. You hold the back part of it with a wrench and loosen the outer part. Oil should run out of a small hole on the bottom of it. You should probably check to make sure the hole isn't blocked, and make sure the tractor is on level ground. It will take a few turns before it starts to run out.

What is the cross reference for John Deere oil filter GY20577 to a Fram oil filter number?

The Fram filter number is PH8170.You could try John Deere AM125424 which is the same filter in a cardboard box at a much more reasonable price. See related link below.AnswerYou could also look at Briggs & Stratton x-refs since the filter mentioned is on JD tractors using the B&s manufactured twin. John Deere AM125424 can be replaced with the Purolator L10241. Works great and is less than $4 at Advance Auto Parts.
